Synopsis
Socioculturally Attuned Family Therapy, 2nd edition, is a fully updated and essential textbook that addresses the need for marriage and family therapists to provide socially responsible couple, marriage, and family therapy, infusing diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout theory and clinical practice. Written accessibly by leaders in the field, this new edition explores why sociocultural attunement and equity matter and provides students and clinicians with integrative, equity-based family therapy guidelines that clinicians can apply to their practice. The authors integrate principles of societal context, power, and equity into the core concepts of ten major family therapy models, such as structural family therapy, narrative family therapy, and Bowen family systems, with this new edition including a new chapter on socio-emotional relational therapy in practice. Paying close attention to the "how to’s" of changes processes, updates include the use of more diverse voices that describe the creative application of this framework, the use of reflective questions that can be used in class, and revisions to show how the authors have moved their thinking forward, such as third-order thinking vs change, ethics as infused in everyday practice from a third-order perspective, and the limits and applicability of SCARFT as a transtheoretical, transnational approach. Fitting COAMFT, COACRE, and CSWE requirements for social and cultural diversity, this new edition is revised to include current cultural and societal changes, such as the BLM movement. It is an essential textbook for students of marriage and family therapy and is important reading for family therapists, supervisors, counsellors, and social workers.
